Chapter 86

Rome, Italy.

Carlos's pov:

My heart sank as I heard Alliana talk about her friend passing away from breast cancer, especially at a young age. She begins to tell me about how they met and how close they've gotten over the years they've been together.

They were inseparable. She could've had the chance to see her again if I hadn't been such an asshole and had Kai abduct her for my needs and selfishness. Now I fucking feel bad. I could see Alliana's eyes welling up with tears. She was heartbroken. Who wouldn't be heartbroken after losing someone who was close to you and like family?

Reflecting on my actions, I realized how selfish and thoughtless I had been. It wasn't just about my desires or needs; I had unknowingly deprived Alliana of precious moments with her friend. The weight of my actions pressed heavily upon me as I listened to Alliana reminisce about the joyful times she shared with her friend, now forever lost.
